We were able to become acquainted with a number of works by artists we did not yet know in the Upper Belverdere, in addition to the work of Gistav Klimt. Wonderful experience.

The palace is wonderful inside with its wonderful collection of unique artwork by Clint and more. The gardens amazing even though it was winter. And because we had pre-booked tickets we didn't have to wait too much more than 5 minutes.

The site and the visit itself were excellently satisfying, but the management of the entrances, and especially the return from the restaurant, were truly problematic. In fact, no one warns on the site that by entering the restaurant to have lunch you cannot return to the museum and not even the help of the restaurant manager was managing to resolve the matter. I had to protest quite a bit, but the staff at the entrance were not completely understanding, despite the evidence being all in my favor.

Belverdere was fantastic but venue was not able to help us with altering tickets as we had not booked directly through them. Background: we had inadvertently booked twice for Upper Belvedere and didn't relised until the date. We asked the venue if there was a possibilty of changing one of the ticket purchases to lower Belvedere but they said they woudn't do.
